mri-scan

Avatar m tn Thank you Kurizu. No I didn't have an MRI scan. I was first sent to a physio who said I would need an MRI scan and an operation, but when I was referred to the consultant, he just got me an Xray. On the report he sent to my GP he mentions impingement symptoms and that my ulna is slightly longer then my radius.

Avatar f tn t know for sure without doing a scope or opening my wrist up. Thus he is in favor of the Wrist Denervation and Styloidectomy. They gave my wrist pain nerve a lidocaine injection to simulate the effect for me to see. They had me test it by squeezing a dynamometer for hand strength. With the lidocaine shot the strength in my affected wrist ended up matching my healthy wrist strength.
Avatar f tn I het the wall and bent my right wrist backwards followed my chest causing me to have trouble breathing for several seconds. I did not fell any pain at first, but an hour later I did. About one year later I was taken for an x-ray, but it turned up negative for broken bones. I have been having sever wrist pain around the left side of my right wrist ever sense.
Avatar m tn While hitting a golf shot (Driver), I experienced severe pain on the outside and underside of my left wrist on impact. I was rolling my wrists through impact as is normal but the contact I made was awkward, painful and sounded strange. The wrist is sore and feels like the tendonds have been strained. No sense that a bone has broken but wrist continues to be very tender. I iced it for 48 hrs and have tried to hit balls but the pain is bad. Any advice on treatment?
Avatar m tn At the time as I could still move the wrist I put it down to a sprain. during the next two weeks I began to notice that it was a little more serious than I had first thought. I had pain when trying to Flex and Extend the wrist as well as when moving it to the left and right. there was also pain on weight bearing to the point that I could not put any weigh through it. when moving from flexion to extension there would be a click and a lot of pain.
Avatar n tn I had a wrist problem about 12 years ago, had every scan known and the surgeon saw nothing.Had my wrist scoped-the Dr. said my wrist looked like the wrist of an 80 year old-he cleaned it out & has been about 90% ever since.Everyone is different with different outcomes. Good luck to you!
Avatar n tn I know I can't get a real answer without proper diagnosis and I am going to see a recommended Surgeon on Friday. He did my wife's carpal tunnel surgery, with success, so I am hopeful. I have been dealing with Right Wrist pain (right dominant individual) for over a decade. I have had two surgeries for tendon release, with temporary success. I moved about 7 years ago and sought out a new Orthopedic in 2005.
Avatar n tn i had a injury when i was abt 10 yrs old. both wrist give me constant sharp pain at times after i over exert my hands. i did a MRI scan, and nerve test on both wrists but doctor says everything is ok. but the problem is gradually increasing every year. my wrist has some crumbling sound of bones when i rotate my wrists, sharp pain, some numbness occasionally in morning and night usually. when pain or numbness occurs i cannot even hold a cup. any form of advice for me is appreciated.
Avatar f tn Thank you for any input that you may have and also thank you for your time!!
Avatar f tn The accuracy of an MRI is primarily a factor of the person administering it, and more so the Doctor interpreting it. It is not common for MRI's to miss anything, that can be seen on one, even with someone who is not an expert in reading them.
Avatar f tn I finally was able to schedule the MRI last week (April 22, 2011), which was a regular MRI followed by a MRI after contrast dye was injected into my wrist joint. I saw the hand specialist today to follow up on the MRI results, and he diagnosed Preiser's disease caused by the initial trauma. He said the scaphoid bone is not completely dead yet, but has limited blood supply. His recommendation was to come back in 2 months and see if anything has changed.
Avatar n tn See an orthopedist, and have an MRI or a bone scan, either ine will be definitive for a scaphoid injury that is a month old. Treatment for non-displaced injuries is usually casting for up to twelve weeks. Displace injuries are usually treated surgically. Either way, treatment is best now because it is important to avoid further injury to the tenuous blood supply for the scaphoid.
3498544 tn?1347495291 I have been in search of a answer for many of months. I started having soreness pain in both wrists, that continued getting worse to hard throb inside center of both wrists, weakness dropping stuff all the time. I was already on prescription pain meds for another issue, they did not help at all. I bought wrist straps, braces, used Ibupro 800mg 3* a day, iced, etc.
Avatar n tn I developed a chronic pain on my right wrist which was now diagnosed after MRI scan as a hidden scapholunate ganglion cyst. It was said by the specialist that it is not work related but could have been aggravated by my work. I have never felt any problems before on my wrist and I'm finding challenging to believe that the condition is not caused by my work.
Avatar n tn You may need to have more imaging (x-ray, MRI, ct scan) done to update your injury. How long has it been since you have had any imaging done?
Avatar n tn my 17 yr old daughter had a wrist injury 6 weeks ago - all radiographs are coming up negative for fracture (bone scan showed hot spots and MRI was inconclusive so was referred to have a CT scan - no results for CT received as yet). Originally was diagnosed as possible scaphoid fracture but now as these tests are coming back negative the doctor thinks it is likely just a soft tissue injury and she needs to work through the pain at physio and try harder.
Avatar n tn I got a wrist pain when pushing something with my hand, for example when doing push up. I went for MRI scan and the result was there was moderate strain without overt tear at the dorsal and volar components of the right scapholunate ligament. My doctor also advised me to wear wrist brace. But it has been more than one month that I wear the wrist brace (the injury itself has been more than 3 months), I am wondering how long does it usually take for the ligament to heal?
Avatar n tn DO not have TMJ. I have had a sinus CT scan, fine. I have had a brain MRI, and MRA with the dye, which came out normal. I am just mentioning these other maybe normal life symptoms in case they may be related. The only other symptom I notice is that I get hot easily and have occasionally various body muscle 2 sec spasms, which most people have. The wirst numbess comes and goes, and I did start to notice it after I injured my left wrist benching very, very heavy weights.
Avatar n tn They thought I had a TIA but the CT Scan showed nothing so they are sending me to a neurologist for more testing. My question is does the CT Scan always show the CT Scan or does it sometimes not?
Avatar m tn She will probably need an MRI with contrast, a CT with contrast and a bone scan done to make sure there are no cysts or tumors, and to see if the carpel tunnel has come back. I would also recommend she have another nerve conduction study done.
Avatar f tn They are thern rexrayed. If the xrays are still negative, but the patient still has pain, an MRI or CT scan can be definitive.
